, given by way of example, illustrates one embodiment of the subject ofthe present invention.

Figure 1 is an elevation showing the interior of a match case in whichthe top part has not been folded over the bottom part.

Figure 2 is a cross sectional side View, the parts being folded one overthe other.

A sheet of cardboard a, which is shaped and cut out in such a way thatwhen the two parts b and c are folded one over the other it presents theoutline (silhouette) and features of a barrel (advertisement to beemployed by a cooper or a wine merchant) and can thus form a case, acontainer, a packing, etc. made of any material by means of any process.

Instead of being folded one over the other, two detached sheetspresenting the same features as the parts 6 and 0 may also be superposedupon each other.

Between these two sheets is left a sufiicient space to permit a movablesupport d, which is fixed or removable carrying the article of dailyuse, that is to say, in the accompanying drawings, a certain number ofmatches e' which support pivots about its pivot This support may beprovided with projections 9 upon which it will be sufficient to press inorder to make the said support pivot.

Instead of the support, one of the parts I) or 0, may pivot about thepivot 7" thus disclosing the contents of the case.

That I claim is 1. An advertising device comprising a covering memberadapted to form a container and having the shape of the article to 0 beadvertised, a support pivoted within said cover and adapted to carrysuitable articles in current or daily use, the ends of the supportprojecting slightly beyond the sides of the cover to form projections sothat when a pressure is exerted thereon the support will pivot and moveout of the cover to permit of the detaching of an article from thesupport.

2. An advertising device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the support ischannelshaped and wherein fastening means is provided forming a pivotfor the support, and a retaining means for the cover.

In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification.
